GPG Suite (without GPG Mail) is Security & Privacy software for Mac.

About

GPG Suite (without GPG Mail) is the macOS edition of GPG Suite that omits the GPG Mail email extension. It brings together a graphical key manager, macOS Services actions, and the MacGPG encryption engine for working with OpenPGP.

  • Manage OpenPGP keys: GPG Keychain can create keys, display your keys and others’ keys, and import keys from a key server. Key details can be managed, and advanced key-creation settings include key size, expiration date, and algorithm.
  • Work with text and files: GPG Services adds actions to the macOS Services context menu for encrypting, decrypting, signing, and verifying selected text, files, and folders.
  • Use the underlying engine: MacGPG provides the command-line route for users familiar with terminal-based GPG tools.
  • Keep email integration separate: This cask does not install GPG Mail. The official site describes GPG Mail as a separate Mail integration; its email-specific buttons and message handling are not part of this no-mail variant.

To install, run brew install --cask gpg-suite-no-mail. Then open GPG Keychain to create or import keys; use GPG Services from an application's macOS Services menu, or use MacGPG from the command line. This cask is for macOS and conflicts with gpg-suite, gpg-suite-pinentry, and gpg-suite@nightly, so those variants cannot be installed alongside it.
